Modern Art and Texture

Wassily Kandinsky is said to be the father of moden art. In the history of art, however, the term ‘modern’ is used to refer to a period dating from roughly the 1860s through the 1970s and describes the style and ideology of art produced during that era. This painting has heavy impasto work. Impasto has been around for a long time, and it wasn’t until Van Gogh came along that impasto was used for it’s expressive qualities.
